DETAILED DESCRIPTION

FIG. 1 illustrates a system 100 for improving a real time self-learning database search for digital information resulting in generation of modified search based software code for configuring a database structure, in accordance with embodiments of the present invention. System 100 is enabled to extract concepts (e.g., keywords, text, etc.) from input(s) and map the extracted concepts to item search conditions (e.g., via key signature attributes, values, etc.) to improve the accuracy of a digital search. System 100 enables a process for improving a real time self-learning database search by:

-   1. Executing natural language processing (NLP) code for recognizing     concepts and building search condition arrays and associated     software code. -   2. Analyzing input logs for identifying signature attributes for     each concept to assist with a digital search and resulting     recommendation.

System 100 enables a process for improving a self-learning real time search for extracting digital information and mapping the digital information to specified search conditions by:

-   1. Executing self-learning code to extract and map digital concepts     to key attributes and values for generating accurate search     conditions. -   2. Executing natural language code for recognizing concepts and     building search condition arrays. -   3. Applying multi-variant analysis or Apriori association rule     mining code for analyzing user input logs and identifying signature     attributes for each concept. The signature attributes are associated     with values for forming the search condition arrays.

System 100 enables a process for automatically learning semantics or interpretations of each high-level concept thereby:

-   1. Providing a shorter time for communications with respect to     detailed intent. -   2. Improving an accuracy of a real time search and associated     recommendations. -   3. Continuously refining concept mapping as input logs increase.

System 100 of FIG. 1 includes a database server 23 connected to a database system 21 connected through a network 7 to a hardware device 14. Hardware device 14 comprises code generation and switching circuitry/logic 12 and a memory system 8. Memory system 8 comprises generated software code 28. Server 23, database system 21, and hardware device 14 each may comprise an embedded device. An embedded device is defined herein as a dedicated device or computer comprising a combination of computer hardware and software (fixed in capability or programmable) specifically designed for executing a specialized function. Programmable embedded computers or devices may comprise specialized programming interfaces. In one embodiment, database server 23, database system 21, and hardware device 14 may each comprise a specialized hardware device comprising specialized (non-generic) hardware and circuitry (i.e., specialized discrete non-generic analog, digital, and logic based circuitry) for (independently or in combination) executing a process described with respect to FIGS. 1-9. The specialized discrete non-generic analog, digital, and logic based circuitry (e.g., code generation circuitry/logic 15, etc.) may include proprietary specially designed components (e.g., a specialized integrated circuit, such as for example an Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) designed for only implementing an automated process for improving a real time search for digital information resulting in generation of modified search based software code for configuring a database structure. The memory system 8 may include a single memory system. Alternatively, the memory system 8 may include a plurality of memory systems.

FIG. 2 illustrates a system diagram for executing self-learning software code for extracting concepts for input and mapping the extracted concepts to associated digital search conditions, in accordance with embodiments of the present invention. The system diagram illustrates natural language classifier (NLC) code 202, dialog flow code, array code/information 206, concept analyzer component (and code) 208, a user input database 210, and a concept database 214. Concept analyzer component 208 comprises a model for: accepting user natural language input and a search condition array, identifying a concept from the users input, and establishing a general mapping between concepts and corresponding search conditions. Based on the general mapping, concept analyzer component 208 generates a personalized mapping for users. Additionally, concept analyzer component 208 is configured to expand a recognized concept to additional related concepts and generate mappings to search conditions. System 100 enables the following process:

-   1. A user 200 inputs search intent via natural language. -   2. Natural language classifier code 202 identifies a specified     search category with respect to the user input. -   3. Dialog flow code 204 provides a set of additional questions     clarifying exact intent. Each question is associated with a search     attribute and an associated the user response corresponds to a     specific attribute value. -   4. Concept analyzer component 208 uses the user input and search     condition array code/information 206 as an input. -   5. Concept analyzer component 208 resolves the user input, extracts     the concept within the input, and saves the concept with an     associated search condition array within user input database 210.     Concept analyzer component 208 additionally analyzes all data within     user input database 210, identifies signature attributes and     corresponding values for each concept thereby forming search     conditions for a digital search and recommendation process. -   6. Concept database 214 stores the mappings from concept to     attributes and values including pre-defined and generated via     concept analyzer component 208. -   7. All existing concept mappings in concept database 214 enable a     cognitive system to retrieve related search conditions when an     existing concept is recognized from the user input, thereby     simplifying a dialog flow for interacting with a user.

FIG. 3 illustrates an internal view of concept analyzer component 208 of FIG. 2, in accordance with embodiments of the present invention. Concept analyzer component 208 comprises an NLP tokenizer component 302, an attribute extractor component 304, a concept generator component 308, and a concept condition mapper component 310. NLP tokenizer component 302 tokenizes an (e.g., replaces a sensitive data element with a non-sensitive equivalent referred to as a token) input sentence into words and removes stop words, verbs, etc. Attribute extractor component 304: uses tokenized words as attribute values, searches for attribute names (keys) from an attribute KV dictionary database 317 (i.e., grouped by category), and generates an attribute key value list. Concept generator component applies filters to extract a concept. Filters may include:

-   1. A category name filter for filtering out strings included in a     category name. -   2. An attribute KV filter for filtering out strings included in an     extracted attribute key or value. -   3. An existing concept filter for filtering out strings for an     existing concept stored in a concept database 320.

All remaining words are considered as a concept requiring mapping to search conditions.

Concept condition mapper comprises analytical software/hardware comprising the following sub modules:

-   1. A machine-learning data miner component 310 a executing machine     learning algorithms for mining and analyzing data in user input     database 324. Machine-learning data miner component 310 a locates     general mapping between a specified concept and its potential     digital search condition. -   2. A personalized concept optimizer 310 b for analyzing and     optimizing search conditions for a given concept. If a current user     is associated with a concept and associated attribute values,     personalized concept optimizer 310 b optimize the concept's general     search condition to a personalized one. -   3. A concept expander component 310 c for using synonym/antonym     analysis to expand a current mapping to more concepts and mappings.     For example, an existing mapping of a USB cable comprises: short     length <=3 ft. Therefore, concept expander component 310 c is     configured to generate additional concept mappings such as: long     comprises length >3 ft.

FIG. 4 illustrates a concept optimizer component 400 of concept analyzer component 208 of FIG. 2, in accordance with embodiments of the present invention. Concept optimizer component 400 comprises circuitry and code for executing a general query condition with respect to a specified concept located after executing data miner code. Concept optimizer component 400 analyzes and optimizes search conditions for a given concept. If a current user is associated with a specified concept and associated attribute values, concept optimizer component 400 uses recommend algorithms to locate similar query conditions based on the concept and attribute values. Concept optimizer component 400 comprises a relevant condition analysis component 400 a and a general condition component 400 b. Relevant condition analysis component 400 a executes code comprising a K-nearest neighbor (KNN) to locate several similar query conditions. General condition component 400 b fuses a query condition comprising user input attributes, relevant condition attributes, and a general concept query. A priority of associated attributes may include: user input attributes>general concept condition>relevant condition attributes.

FIG. 5 illustrates an example of a concept extraction process executed by NLP tokenizer component 302, attribute extractor component 304, and concept generator component 308 of FIG. 3, in accordance with embodiments of the present invention. A concept generator removes (i.e., based on tokenized words) the terms “Monitors” (i.e., a category string) and “company A” included in an attribute KV list. A remaining term “graphic designer” is considered to be a concept string. If the term “graphic designer” is not located in a current concept database, a dialog flow will ask user a few questions to further determine the user's intention. All questions and user answers will be merged together with a previous attribute KV (Brand: company A). The attribute KV list includes potential search conditions for the concept “graphic designer” and a mapping is stored in a user input database for further analysis with a concept analyzer component.

FIG. 6 illustrates an algorithm detailing a process flow enabled by system 100 of FIG. 1 for improving a real time self-learning database search for digital information resulting in generation of modified search based software code for configuring a database structure, in accordance with embodiments of the present invention. Each of the steps in the algorithm of FIG. 6 may be enabled and executed in any order by a computer processor(s) executing computer code. Additionally, each of the steps in the algorithm of FIG. 6 may be enabled and executed in combination by database server 23, database system 21, and/or hardware device 14 of FIG. 1. In step 600, a natural language Internet search request is received from a user (via a hardware device). In step 602, a real time search is executed (in response to the request of step 600) with respect to a specialized database associated with an Internet based search for specified digital information. In step 604, categories associated with the natural language Internet search request are identified. In step 608, intent based information associated with the natural language Internet search request is received. In step 610, digital attributes of associated digital data identified during the real time search are automatically identified based on the intent based information. Automatically identifying the digital attributes may include:

-   1. Replacing associated portions of the digital data with digital     tokens representing the associated portions. -   2. Associating the digital tokens with the digital attributes. -   3. Storing the digital tokens within an additional logical partition     of the specialized database. -   4. Combining the digital tokens with the search based software code.

In step 612, a concept associated with the natural language Internet search request is extracted from the associated digital data. In step 614, a group of digital attributes of the digital attributes is identified in response to the extracting of step 612. In step 618, the concept is mapped to the group of digital attributes. In step 620, the concept mapped to the group of digital attributes is stored within the specialized database. In step 624, search based software code (e.g., natural language processing software code) associated with an Internet search for the specified digital information is generated and executed based on results of the mapping of step 618. In step 628, relevant results associated with the Internet based search for the specified digital information are presented via a specialized graphical user interface. In step 630, the specialized database is configured (based on the relevant results) such that the relevant results are stored within a logical partition of the specialized database. The logical partition is enabled to execute multiple real time Internet searches for the specified digital information. Additionally, the database is automatically connected (via switching circuitry) to additional hardware devices for executing the multiple real time Internet searches for the specified digital information. In step 632, technical issues with the search based software code are automatically diagnosed and repaired.

For example, the memory devices 94 and 95 may be portions of a single memory device rather than separate memory devices.

Cloud Computing Environment

It is to be understood that although this disclosure includes a detailed description on cloud computing, implementation of the teachings recited herein are not limited to a cloud computing environment. Rather, embodiments of the present invention are capable of being implemented in conjunction with any other type of computing environment now known or later developed.

Cloud computing is a model of service delivery for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., networks, network bandwidth, servers, processing, memory, storage, applications, virtual machines, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or interaction with a provider of the service. This cloud model may include at least five characteristics, at least three service models, and at least four deployment models.

Characteristics are as follows:

On-demand self-service: a cloud consumer can unilaterally provision computing capabilities, such as server time and network storage, as needed automatically without requiring human interaction with the service's provider.

Broad network access: capabilities are available over a network and accessed through standard mechanisms that promote use by heterogeneous thin or thick client platforms (e.g., mobile phones, laptops, and PDAs).

Resource pooling: the provider's computing resources are pooled to serve multiple consumers using a multi-tenant model, with different physical and virtual resources dynamically assigned and reassigned according to demand. There is a sense of location independence in that the consumer generally has no control or knowledge over the exact location of the provided resources but may be able to specify location at a higher level of abstraction (e.g., country, state, or datacenter).

Rapid elasticity: capabilities can be rapidly and elastically provisioned, in some cases automatically, to quickly scale out and rapidly released to quickly scale in. To the consumer, the capabilities available for provisioning often appear to be unlimited and can be purchased in any quantity at any time.

Measured service: cloud systems automatically control and optimize resource use by leveraging a metering capability at some level of abstraction appropriate to the type of service (e.g., storage, processing, bandwidth, and active user accounts). Resource usage can be monitored, controlled, and reported, providing transparency for both the provider and consumer of the utilized service.

Service Models are as follows:

Software as a Service (SaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to use the provider's applications running on a cloud infrastructure. The applications are accessible from various client devices through a thin client interface such as a web browser (e.g., web-based e-mail). The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers, operating systems, storage, or even individual application capabilities, with the possible exception of limited user-specific application configuration settings.

Platform as a Service (PaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to deploy onto the cloud infrastructure consumer-created or acquired applications created using programming languages and tools supported by the provider. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including networks, servers, operating systems, or storage, but has control over the deployed applications and possibly application hosting environment configurations.

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to provision processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources where the consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software, which can include operating systems and applications. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, deployed applications, and possibly limited control of select networking components (e.g., host firewalls).

Deployment Models are as follows:

Private cloud: the cloud infrastructure is operated solely for an organization. It may be managed by the organization or a third party and may exist on-premises or off-premises.

Community cloud: the cloud infrastructure is shared by several organizations and supports a specific community that has shared concerns (e.g., mission, security requirements, policy, and compliance considerations). It may be managed by the organizations or a third party and may exist on-premises or off-premises.

Public cloud: the cloud infrastructure is made available to the general public or a large industry group and is owned by an organization selling cloud services.

Hybrid cloud: the cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more clouds (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability (e.g., cloud bursting for load-balancing between clouds).

A cloud computing environment is service oriented with a focus on statelessness, low coupling, modularity, and semantic interoperability. At the heart of cloud computing is an infrastructure that includes a network of interconnected nodes.

Referring now to FIG. 8, illustrative cloud computing environment 50 is depicted. As shown, cloud computing environment 50 includes one or more cloud computing nodes 10 with which local computing devices used by cloud consumers, such as, for example, personal digital assistant (PDA) or cellular telephone 54A, desktop computer 54B, laptop computer 54C, and/or automobile computer system 54N may communicate. Nodes 10 may communicate with one another. They may be grouped (not shown) physically or virtually, in one or more networks, such as Private, Community, Public, or Hybrid clouds as described hereinabove, or a combination thereof. This allows cloud computing environment 50 to offer infrastructure, platforms and/or software as services for which a cloud consumer does not need to maintain resources on a local computing device. It is understood that the types of computing devices 54A, 54B, 54C and 54N shown in FIG. 8 are intended to be illustrative only and that computing nodes 10 and cloud computing environment 50 can communicate with any type of computerized device over any type of network and/or network addressable connection (e.g., using a web browser).
